Greetings.
 
I'm a first time poster to this forum.  I recently purchased the Crystal Reports .Net Programming book.  It served as a good overview.  However, while the book touched on label printing, it did not address the issue which I now face.
 
I have a report template for address labels - basic name, address, city, state, zip format.  The report wizard provides the means to easily define the template, and with a few clicks, I combined the label sections into one detail section.  This works fine for a specific sheet of labels.  However, I have not found a way to dynamically change the detail section width and gap settings to accomodate the different label sheets that customers may use.  The height is exposed but not the width and gap.
 
Has anyone come across a solution?
 
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
W James
